5-amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide riboside potentiates both transport of reduced folates and antifolates by the human reduced folate carrier and their subsequent metabolism.
Transport is required before reduced folates and anticancer antifolates [e.g., methotrexate (MTX)] exert their physiologic functions or cytotoxic effects. The folate/antifolate transporter with the widest tissue distribution and greatest activity is the reduced folate carrier (RFC). There is little evidence that RFC-mediated influx is posttranscriptionally regulated. We show that [(3)H]MTX infl...
متن کاملAugmentation of reduced folate carrier-mediated folate/antifolate transport through an antiport mechanism with 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide riboside monophosphate.
5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide riboside (AICAR), an agent with diverse pharmacological properties, augments transport of folates and antifolates. This report further characterizes this phenomenon and defines the mechanism by which it occurs. Exposure of HeLa cells to AICAR resulted in augmentation of methotrexate, 5-formyltetrahydrofolate, and 5-methyltetrahydrofolate initial rates and net upta...
متن کاملThe proton-coupled folate transporter: impact on pemetrexed transport and on antifolates activities compared with the reduced folate carrier.
The reduced folate carrier (RFC) and the proton-coupled folate transporter (PCFT) are ubiquitously expressed in normal and malignant mammalian tissues and in human solid tumor cell lines. This article addresses the extent to which PCFT contributes to transport of pemetrexed and to the activities of this and other antifolates relative to RFC at physiological pH. Either RFC or PCFT cDNA was stabl...
متن کاملInhibition of glycolysis by 5-amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide riboside in isolated rat hepatocytes.
5-Amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide riboside (AICAriboside; Z-riboside), the nucleotide corresponding to AICAribotide (AICAR or ZMP), an intermediate of the 'de novo' pathway of purine nucleotide biosynthesis, has been shown to inhibit gluconeogenesis in isolated rat hepatocytes [Vincent, Marangos, Gruber & Van den Berghe (1991) Diabetes 40, 1259-1266]. We now report that glycosis is also inhibited ...
متن کاملEffect of 5-amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide riboside on renal ammoniagenesis. Study with [15N]aspartate.
[15N]Aspartate and 5-amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide riboside (AICAriboside) were used to evaluate the contribution of the purine nucleotide cycle to ammonia production in renal tubules isolated from control and chronically acidotic rats. Addition of 1 mM AICAriboside to incubation medium containing 2.5 mM [15N] aspartate significantly stimulated production of 15NH3 and 15N in the 6-amino group of...
